Question: How Many Strands of Floss Should I Use?
There is a simple and effective way to determine how many strands of floss are needed for various fabric counts.
Answer: Generally, the number of strands used is determined by the level of coverage you want. If complete coverage of the ground fabric is the aim, more floss will be needed. The best way to determine the number of floss strands to use is to follow the pattern directions. If this information is lacking from the key, stitch a test using 1-2 strands of floss. Increase the strands or decrease as needed.
